NECA release images of final Terminator Ultimate T800 packaging

NECA have released the final packaging art for their upcoming Ultimate T800 figure, the first Ultimate figure for Terminator based on the original 1984 movie.

The "Tech Noir" Ultimate T800 is based on the Terminator's appearance in the Tech Noir nightclub in the first half of the film. He comes packed with 3 head options, swap out arms and various weapon options. Tech Noir T800 is due for release in July 2016 and is on pre-order at Forbidden Planet.

Like other Ultimate boxed packaging, the figure will only be visible behind the front flap - with the flap and spine art being reminiscent of a 1980's VHS cover or similar. Whether this will cause any confusion for casual fans of NECA who may be expecting the T800 in glasses and leather jacket that they see on the front of the box.

The Tech Noir will be followed with a 2nd Ultimate release based on the T800's appearance from the 2nd half of the film, particularly the Police Station Assault scene. Forbidden Planet also have this release down for July, but we suspect it may be later in the Summer.
